Last night one of the hottest classics on the old continent was set to be played. A really great game in between Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais. However, the ultras, the commoners, avoided it.
The first major incident, and subsequent trigger that caused the match to be suspended, was the attack by radical fans of Marseilles on the bus where the Olympique de Lyon expedition arrived. These are the pictures:
Serious incidents of Marseille fans against Lyon buses have already paid off nine arrests and investigations continue to arrest all those responsible.
But it is not here.
Fans traveling to Marseille from Lyon are also not welcome. So stoned the buses, again, the ultras of the Marseille club.
Not everything happened around the Vélodrome Stadium, as well as the stands.
Olympique de Lyon ultras consider themselves fans very french and ultranationalist against any issue or person who resists France. The Marseille ultras, on the other hand, are mostly from Algerian and Maghreb origin. That is, they do not feel France as theirs nor are they proud, as they say, of belonging to the French nation.
Therefore, as soon as they access the stadium, the Lyon ultras dedicate themselves to offering all kinds of provocation to the Marseille stand. Among those to be seen fascist greetings, abuse holding the French flag and being signs of jumping from one step to another to create conflict. These are the pictures.
In the following video the intention of a Lyon fan of jump towards the rival standing, where Marseille fans were present. Terrible.
A series of unfortunate pictures starring the same old radicals as caused the meeting to be suspended.
